With Summer Games Fest & the Xbox Showcase still happening this week, a lot of games are getting leaked, rumored, and/or rated.  

One of these, seemingly, is a remaster of the PS3/PS4 exclusive anime arena fighter JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven, titled JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven R, named in the same vein as another recent JoJo's remaster, the traditional 2.5D fighting game JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R.

The game was recently rated in Brazil for all major platforms, including PS5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, & Nintendo Switch.  Yes, the game has been apparently rated for the original Nintendo Switch, which is fair considering the original game was also on PS3, which is very similar to the original Switch hardware-wise.

As mentioned before, Eyes of Heaven was a 3D arena fighter, very different from the traditional fighting game that its predecessor All-Star Battle was.

However, speaking of All-Star Battle, that game got the R treatment a few years back that saw the game get ported & remastered for modern platforms at the time, as well as including new base-game content & DLC.

It's safe to assume that a potential Eyes of Heaven R would get the same treatment, including new characters that were both added to All-Star Battle R, missing from the original jump from All-Star Battle to Eyes of Heaven, and new modes such as a long-awaited local multiplayer, something the original versions of the game locked behind online.

Given how much fan-service was put into All-Star Battle R, from fixing things from the original game to adding requested characters from both the anime and manga, there's a lot of expectation going into a new JoJo's remaster, with the most requested being more JoJolion content, as the original release was only able to use very limited content from Part 8, and potentially even content from Part 9: JoJoLands.

With two more big showcases happening this week and Bandai Namco almost always having a big presence, regardless if its licensed anime games or their own original projects, will we see the game get officially announced at some point this weekend?
